Why didn’t Karoline Leavitt initially say the video was wrong, was posted by a staffer, and apologize?
She did none of those things.

Donald Trump is a virulent racist. His sycophants—JD Vance and Kristi Noem at the lead—who’ve parroted his hateful slurs and attempted to expel Black and brown peoples are just as vile. It’s a great pleasure, then, to see and hear jurists such as Anna Reyes put them in their places.

It's a great opinion by Judge Ana Reyes (and sound on the law—Noem was too busy posting to follow even the basics of the statute). Worth a read, and don't skip the footnotes.
![Alexander Moritz Frey was the first to use “shithole” as a descriptor of a “wretched place,” doing so in his seminal antiwar novel, The Cross Bearers (1930). See Shithole, Oxford English Dictionary, https://www.oed.com/search/dictionary/?scope=Entries&q=shithole. Frey’s life story confirms the role democracies can play in welcoming, as George Washington did, “the oppressed and persecuted.” Frey, a prolific author and pacifist, served as a medic in the trenches of World War I alongside Adolf Hitler. Hitler later tried to convert him to Nazism, but Frey staunchly refused. He fled Germany in 1933, as Nazis burned his books, raided his apartment, and issued a warrant for his arrest. He lived his remaining years in exile, first in Austria and then in Switzerland. See Von David Gordon Smith, Eye-Witness Account of Hitler’s WWI Years Found, Spiegel International (April 30, 2007), https://www.spiegel.de/ international/zeitgeist/ rediscovering-alexander-moritz-frey-eye-witness-account-of-hitler-s-wwiyears-found-a-478359.html [https://perma.cc/RU49-2Y4U].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ddvus7otnqtlh7fdooxm6qat/bafkreibq7vhlepsylu3bpwppbsvmdeke7bduapj6r2iqtvxk6xo7eswv6y@jpeg)
